Jul 14, 202530 Th wedding anniversary trip
Overwater elite bungalow was perfect. View from our deck was amazing and bungalow was so very comfortable .. Swimming in the ocean right under bungalow was incredible. Alberto gave us an amazing tour of resort and took amazing pictures and made the ride to our hut fun. Fernando and Enrique our butlers made the entire trip perfect, took care of everything and made us feel like family. We celebrated our 30th wedding anniversary with overwater private dinner and everyone celebrated with us. Love Palofitos . Definitely go for a bungalow on open ocean.

The whole resort was impeccably clean thanks to the relentless work of the employees. We spent 7 days in this paradise and bring back home memories that will last a lifetime time.

Palafitos - Heaven on Earth
Absolutely amazing trip the Palafitos bungalows! Never seen anything like that! The Caribbean nature was incredible and people who worked there were exceptional and very friendly and helpful. From room service, food to entertainment! Fabulous! We made so many friends just playing beach volleyball with the crew, pool volleyball and workouts in the water. Everyone made our stay soooo enjoyable. Would return without a doubt. Special thank you to Alberto, Marco, Mauricio, Jerick, Ferndinand, Enrique and Pilar!
